HARVEY Report post Posted September 22, 2008 Has anybody tried carving or tooling images of beadwork? On pg. 57 of Al Stohlman's FIGURE CARVING, he shows a carved beaded eagle bonnet trailer and man's shirt. Anybody ever carve this, or anything else with beadwork: moccasins, pipebags, saddle trappings, etc? Got any samples you can post? How do you carve this???

Harvey Los Angeles harv, i have done this several times,easy,just get a seeder or a tool with a domed circular surface and go to hammering the surface, when finished ,paint your design on finish ,antique wotever looks good n sure beats beading adios peter john Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
